  Sometimes I look but usually I just put it in my wallet and wait until the draw.

  I have a habit of looking at the lotto ticket right after the quick pick but starting today I should just put it in my jeans and check on the drawing date.

  I don't even know if they have it on tv in TN, never seen it. It's computer generated anyway. They could pretty much tell us anything they want and we wouldn't know any better. The people here in TN would prefer real ball drawings but our Lottery Officials really don't care what we want. They're letting us eat cake. And I think the cake's from Walmart. Have you had their new "whipped icing"?  It looks exactly like real whipped cream and tastes like you took a bite out of a Motel6 mattress. Yummy!

  I thought everybody looks at the tickets when they get them, QP or otherwise.

  Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners. 

  

  There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

  I used to just take the ticket and tuck it away.  Then one day I bought a ticket and went to Waffle House for a cup of their coffee.  Just for grins I retrieved the ticket.  Much to my horror I saw the date was for a drawing last week.  I had been tricked.

  Today, I look at the the game name and the date before leaving the counter.

  That sounds good too sully. I like the lime on the side though and make sure you go heavy on the tequila. The chicken's not really necessary.
